We have been including postscript for figures produced on a Macintosh
in Latex documents using psfig. The Mac postscript requires a header
that contains an appropiately modified laserprep file. We have been able
to produce Mac figures using AppleDict version #68 fine (this
corresponds to LaserPrep5.8). However, the Macs here now use LaserPrep
6.0 which contains AppleDict version #70. Now our Mac drawings will not
print using psfig on our Unix machines. Can anyone point me to a source
for an appropiately modified LaserPrep6.0? Or perhaps a source that
would explain how to modify such a beast? (I don't know postscript
myself).

thanks in advance,
